Terra-Gen and Mortenson have announced completion of Edwards & Sanborn Solar + Energy Storage, in which Mortenson was the full EPC contractor on both the solar and energy storage scopes for the project.
The project includes more than 1.9 million First Solar modules, generates 875 MW of solar energy and has 3,287 MWh of energy storage with a total interconnection capacity of 1,300 MW. It uses LG Chem, Samsung and BYD batteries.
The project supplies power to the city of San Jose, Southern California Edison, Pacific Gas & Electric and the Clean Power Alliance, among others.
A portion of the project is situated on Edwards Air Force Base.
“Now fully operational, this facility is a transformational project in the industry and is providing resiliency to the grid” says Brian Gorda, vice president of engineering at Terra-Gen. “The Mortenson team was tasked with an extremely difficult goal to build this project, and they proved to be the right partner for the job. We are excited to bring Edwards & Sanborn online and benefiting the people of California.”
“Mortenson is honored to help Terra-Gen deliver the Edwards & Sanborn project and provide the region with clean, resilient power, ” adds Mark Donahue, senior vice president at Mortenson. “I’m proud of the world-class facility our team designed, built and commissioned for Terra-Gen.”

The Downside of Social Media
At left is a recent post by a “friend” on FB. A couple of points that illustrate how inane and dangerous social media can be:
- This is a hoax that was debunked that year.
- Protesting the U.S. support for what’s happening in Gaza is far different than “organizing pro-Hamas rallies.”
- Objecting to the free expression of ideas is unAmerican.
Of course, stupidity exists even in the absence of social media, but there is no doubt that it accelerates that rate at which crap like this can be promulgated throughout our society.

This Is a Big Ask
To accept what House Speaker Mike Johnson says here, you’ll have to pretend that you received your DOGE and Tariff checks, that grocery and gasoline prices aren’t through the roof, that the national debt didn’t just break the $40 trillion barrier, and that the United States has won the illegal and pointless war in Iran.
OK, we’re stupid, but there must be a limit.
Please tell me there is a limit.

Trump’s Attempt at Bribery
There are so many obnoxious features of Trump’s offer to bribe voters that it’s impossible to count them all.
Something that jumps out at me is that I live among people whose integrity is for sale for $5000.
